Steps

Method 1 of 4: Egg Stink Bomb

1

Get an egg, and a needle.

2

Use the needle (the thinner, the better) to poke a very small hole in the egg.

3

Place the egg in a safe, open to the air container (a shoebox with holes punched in it) and let it sit for a couple of weeks. Theoretically, the longer you let it sit, the better, but eventually the egg will dry out, so experiment to see how long to let it sit.

4

Toss the egg. Once you think you've waited long enough, simply throw the egg (it should be intact except for a pinhole, remember!) wherever you want to stink, and enjoy.

Method 2 of 4: Hair Stink Bomb

1

Lay a piece of newspaper or notebook paper flat out in front of you.

2

Lay a good-sized amount of animal or human hair into the center of the paper.

3

Cut off the heads of four or five matches. Place the heads of the matches into the hair.

4

Bunch up the paper into a roll or a ball. Make sure not to bunch the paper too much, or else the stink bomb won't burn correctly. Make sure the match tips stay inside the rolled-up paper, too.

5

Tighten the stink bomb with a loose rubber band.

6

Place two more fully-intact matches into the rubber band. They should serve as fuses.

7

Light your stink bomb in the perfect place and get ready for some nasty smells!

Method 3 of 4: Ammonia and Matches

1

Cut off the heads of a book of matches using a scissors. Set match heads aside and throw away or otherwise use the rest.

2

Place the match heads in a clean, unused bottle with a cap.

3

Pour about two or three tablespoons of ammonia into the bottle. Cap the bottle and swirl.

4

Wait three to four days before opening the bottle. Once unleashed, the smell will send shivers down spines and nightmares into heads. This stink bomb forms ammonium sulfide, (NH4)2S.

Method 4 of 4: Onions, garlic, cabbage and burnt hair

1

Get the primary ingredients. chop up some onions and garlic until they are finely diced. You can use use any kind of onions but green onions or leeks produce the best results as they are the most pungent. Shred up five large leaves of cabbage.

2

Throw into a jar. Get a pint sized clear glass jar with a lid and scoop the ingredients into it.

3

Add the hair. Add a small lock of either human hair or animal hair to the mix. The hair should rest on top of the mix and be intact as a bundle; this makes the next step easier. (Optional) For an even nastier stench, add one match head to the bundle of hair.

4

Close and burn. Close the lid on the jar and make it "airtight". Next use a magnifying glass to shine a beam through the jar and onto the bundle of hair until it starts to smoke inside the jar. you want to burn as much hair as possible.If you went with the optional in the last step, shine the beam on the match head.

5

Let it sit. Let the smoke filled jar sit in direct sunlight and leave it alone. let it sit in the sun for about a week; this heats up the ingredients and lets them blend, and permeate everything in the jar. once the smoke inside the jar has settled, use a nail to poke a hole in the lid. This is to help the ingredients decompose inside the jar.

6

Brace yourself for the test. after about a week, open the jar and take a whiff to see if its stink has blended enough. Only do this outside, NEVER in your house or anywhere else you don't want to badly stink up. Remember, the longer you leave it, the more wicked it's stench will be. After two weeks, it will be ready to use. If you are able to catch a noticeable whiff from a few feet away, than it is more than ready.

7

Unleash. Either open or break the jar in the area you want to stink and watch as people rapidly clear away from the obnoxious, haunting, suffocating stench.

Tips

Experiment with your environment. Change it up a bit, time how long you let it sit and how long it stinks afterward, put it in different environments to find the best one... Maybe even use a needle to extract some of the egg and introduce a foul substance to it. Hydrogen Sulfide is the main chemical used in stink bombs. Perhaps you can rot the egg a little, extract some egg, introduce the hydrogen sulfide, and seal it with Epoxy.

Warnings

If you leave it too long it may explode!

Don't drop it somewhere you don't want to smell HORRIBLE.

Don't put it near anyone's eyes.

Don't drop on other peoples' personal property! You will get in trouble and they might make you clean it up as punishment (And NOBODY wants to deal with that smell!) Plus, you may damage the person's property!
